Chapter 225 - Apprenticeship | Quota Dispute (1/2)

As James was being taken away on a stretcher, he continued to give Qin Fen a deadly stare. It seemed that the East Asia military had indeed birthed many contenders for the Recruit Tournament Martial Art Battle championship.

The medical staff responsible for the wounded looked at Thomas, whose body had turned into a feeble muddy pile of flesh and felt a deep chill. Unless extreme methods were used, even if he could be cured, his strength would never be able to go through any upgrade in this life again.

Qin Fen came to Du Peng and gently lifted his arm to spread his palm. He gave a quick, loud high-five.

Zha Can and the others had all regained alertness after experiencing a short period of shock. The results of this battle were so much better than originally expected.

Kyokushin Genichi came to Qin Fen, still recalling the scene earlier where Qin Fen made the arrogant James fall backward continuously with each punch.

Cool! Handsome!

Besides these thoughts, Kyokushin Genichi could no longer think of any other words to describe the delightful battle.

Okamoto Takeshi moved his huge and fat body, “Qin Fen, your strength is greater than mine, your power is stronger than mine. I admire you! But I will try to pursue you. There will be a day where I will catch up to your strength and battle properly against you.”

Kyokushin Genichi looked at Okamoto Takeshi with some envy. In the state of Japan, the status of the Okamoto family was undeniable, and their strength was multiple times stronger than the entire school of Kyokushin.

With a huge family strength as support, there was no need to worry too much even if their talent was slightly lacking. The strength of the Okamoto family could provide Okamoto Takeshi a better internal cultivation technique from the Sacred Martial Hall, and at the same time be able to purchase expensive medicine that could help increase the chance of a breakthrough.

At this point, Kyokushin Genichi could not be compared to the Okamoto family at all. All he could do was practice hard — to train again and again.

The young man from India who rarely talked said with a bow, “Congratulations, both of you can be said to be the pride of our boot camp. It seems that the number one fighter of this boot camp would be either one of you.”

The relaxed atmosphere immediately tensed up upon the uttering of this sentence. The Indian young man was still smiling peacefully, but he had a glimpse of anticipation in his eyes.

“The number one fighter?” Du Peng stared at the young martial artists from India with a sneer, “This technique of provocative separation was invented by our Chinese ancestors long time ago. Do you think doing this is interesting? You have never been on the battlefield, am I right? I have a blood and life relationship with Qin Fen. Do you want to know who is the number one fighter in this camp? I can tell you, it’s Qin Fen. This is not based on my fear or modesty. He didn’t even release all his power during the battle earlier. I can speculate that I am still a little lacking in comparison to him.”

The young Indian martial artist’s face went pale and laughed awkwardly, “You’ve misunderstood, you’ve misunderstood.”

Du Peng sneered. He was about to say something, but he shut his mouth again.

He paused for two seconds, and said with a faint, unusual sorrow, “Forget it, if I were to forcefully dismantle your lie, he would probably say that I can only get entangled with people like you and that I’m not qualified to be his brother again.”

Qin Fen knew that Du Peng had thought of Du Zhanpeng again. He reached out and patted him on his back, “Not settled completely yet?”

“Yeah.” Du Peng looked up as the grief in his eyes only increased, “Indeed, I am really useless. It’s been so long and I still have not been able to receive his legacy. If he sees me now, he would probably repeat to me that I am not qualified enough, right?”

Qin Fen touched his chin and looked like he was in serious thought, “Based on estimation, probably yes?”

Du Peng was stunned, and a sense of joy in his eyes took over part of the grief.

Men also need comfort. However! They do not need too much comfort! This kind of joke-like agreement was better than comfort sometimes.

“Not qualified…” Du Peng mumbled the words that have been hurting him ever since a young age. A strange expression showed on his face as he lifted his high cheekbones, “Watch me from the sky, I will make myself qualified enough.”

Qin Fen saluted Zha Can and the others with his hands, “Everyone, things are done, we should first head back to our living quarters to meet our battle companions. We’ll exchange skills another day.”

Zha Can and the others followed Qin Fen’s salutation quickly, “Sure…”

Kyokushin Genichi looked at Qin Fen and Du Peng’s back, his brows straightened as if he had made a huge decision, and shouted while running toward them suddenly, “Sir Qin Fen!”

“Can I help you?” Qin Fen looked back.

“Yes.” Kyokushin Genichi suddenly bent his legs and kneeled directly in front of Qin Fen. He said with his hands on the ground supporting his body, “Earlier, Genichi saw that Sir Qin Fen had used my new Karate technique several times during the battle between you and James. To be honest, upon seeing that, Genichi was extremely ashamed! The Master Kyokushin once said that New Karate is a newly created school and there are still many inadequacies. Please guide Genichi!”

After that, Kyokushin Genichi bowed down and pressed his head against the ground.

Almost all the people present were stunned by the behavior of Kyokushin Genichi. Even if you were not as good as your peers, you could still work hard to catch up with each other. Why would you want to make it seem like an apprenticeship?

Okamoto Takeshi clasped his arms around his chest and nodded his fat head gently. In order to rise to the peak of the martial arts journey without having a strong family background, the best way would be to seek a pro who was strong enough for guidance.

Qin Fen today only possessed six-star strength. But what about tomorrow? One year later? Five years later? From the earlier battle, the bravery of the Martial Emperor Dragon fist was enough to explain his amazing talent.

“Please guide Genichi!” Kyokushin Genichi said again, loudly, “If you have a problem with the organization, then let Genichi be a disciple your organization and swear by the heart of martial dao! In this life, I would never betray you, I’ll be your disciple forever.”

“Recruiting disciples?” Qin Fen recalled Dragon Hall had not been managed for a long time. I wonder how is the development these days? Did its signboard get stolen again?

“Yes.” Kyokushin Genichi looked up with extreme enthusiasm in his eyes, “Genichi is willing to be your disciple!”

Okamoto Takeshi, who had a calm expression, was also shocked till his mouth hung open slightly. Discipleship was not something to joke about, especially in the presence of martial artists from various schools. It would be difficult if he were to withdraw in the future.

“This…” Qin Fen said, “If I am to recruit disciples, I am going to charge for it.”

“Is it very expensive?” Kyokushin Genichi was worried. Although his family did have some power, they weren’t rich to the extent where he could simply waste his money.

“Not exactly.” Qin Fen pushed his chin and thought for a while, “To be honest, I am not exactly proficient in the new Karate, so the help I can give may be limited. If you insist to be my disciple, it would be five thousand yuan a year…”

“Five thousand? Sure!” Kyokushin Genichi agreed immediately as he was afraid that Qin Fen might regret his offer.

Okamoto Takeshi’s eyes were also raised. The price was indeed too cheap! Ever since Kyokushin Genichi entered the new Karate organization, he was required to pay about two hundred thousand yuan for him to be taught personally by the school founder.
